Army fires chief of medical research over Edgewood probes
The Army reassigned Dr Van Mi Sim from leading Edgewood Arsenal medical research amid an inspector general probe into past drug tests on volunteers. Sim, facing historic charges from a Memorial Clinic departure, goes on leave and will serve as special adviser to Edgewood’s technical director. the investigation follows CBS reporting and broader reviews of LSD and other drug tests on about 4000 soldiers and civilians. Washington officials say no disciplinary action was taken then, while contemporaneous notes reference Kennedy and ONeill comments on presidential prospects.
